Run the patcher another time without launching the game and it should fix it. This lets you in the game and does not fix the patcher...

The fix in this thread did not help. I attempted to install it using the instructions and it still did not function as intended. I am using the following fix to get in:
***ATTENTION*** -- TEMPORARY FIX
Repair and play.
1) C:\CCP\EVE\repair.exe
1a) If the repairer fails - re-run multiple times until it completes.
2) C:\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe
The game should load and let you connect without issue..
DO NOT under any circumstances re-run the patcher or this will break and you will have to do it over again.
-=-=-=-
Note - This took me about 5 minutes for the repairer to run.

You said you updated the steps. I tried again and it fails.
My way keeps working. I dunno what else to do. See, after I run the "patcher" (which reads my registry installation and goes to C:\CCP\EVE (ccps new installation path I guess) -- it auto runs the patcher and it won't work.
Even "run with administrator" doesn't work. I'm running Windows 7...
Edit:
Running repairer works, to get in game.. Running launcher will fail over and over and break eve again. |

Yeah, its the only thing that works for me...

Please note Peoples install paths may be different. |

Put the following in a windows location bar:
%LocalAppData%\CCP\EVE\c_ccp_eve_tranquility\settings\
You want the files - core_user_* & core_char_*

If they are not there you are fed |

Okay I used the launcher as normal earlier, was stuck in offline mode,
same with Sisi.
I used the exe launcher workaround on Sisi and it worked fine. I then
tried to use it on the regular client, and on the main login screen it
updated with a couple of errors. Now if I use the launcher OR the bypass
it takes me to a login screen with incompatible protocol listed as server
status (and I cannot login).
When I try to run repair, it fails and logs an error (I tried to find the log, but it keeps disappearing on me).
Update: After trying to run the repair several times to capture the error log, it finally appeared to run successfully.
Launched game using the ExeFile and got in okay. Thanks Donathan Slade.
Yep, as i said just run the repairer until the repairer says "complete"
:)
I'm sorry this is not working for everybody but for those it works for at least you can get in |

If you run the repair tool only once it will most likely Fail
you MUST re-run the repair tool multiple times until it fixes it.
I ran it the first time it fixed it. However in testing I re-rant the launcher.
This took me 3 times on average to get the repair to apply properly. Just try again, and I hope you can all get on. |

I ran the repair tool no less than 20 times, and got errors every time, but I kept trying it, and the last time it worked.
It ran through its little thing and updated the game.
Then I did Step 2 and updated game fired up. I'm in right now.
But make sure you run both files AS ADMINISTRATOR.
+1 This fix worked.
Yeah, I computer hard so my profile on my box is an administrator so I keep forgetting the whole "Run as administrator" thing since I turn all that protection stuff off because is annoying.
Glad it worked finally! |

An issue with the content web server has resulted in some problems which are made apparent by the launcher, while this issue is being investigated please be aware you can bypass the launcher by using the ExeFile.exe which can be found in the "bin" folder of the client directly. Locate the folder where you installed EVE. If you are not sure where that folder is, see http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/EVE_default_directoriesFrom the EVE installation folder, open the folder called GÇ£binGÇ¥ and there you will find the ExeFile.exe More information can be found in the following forum post: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238130&find=unreadWe apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you, should you continue to experience problems with the launcher, please update this petition and we will be happy to offer further assistance. Best Regards, CCP Customer Support | EVE Online | DUST 514

Yeah, the problem is most people are prompted to patch and the patch just sends them back to the launcher and they get stuck in a infinite loop. The only way to fix at that point is to run the repairer like I posted earlier in this thread. |
